A Muscovite was fined 50 thousand rubles under an article about “discrediting” the army because of his dyed hair.

At the end of April this year, Stas Netesov came to the police department to write a statement about theft - he was attacked at a bus stop, his phone was stolen and his tooth was knocked out. However, a report was drawn up against him for “discrediting” the RF Armed Forces.

The police did not like the appearance of the young man; they considered his blue and yellow hair colors to be support for Ukraine. In addition, security forces took fingerprints from the young man. They also told Netesov that they would force him to “kiss his native soil in the trenches” and handed him a summons to the military registration and enlistment office.

The Tverskoy Court of Moscow fined Netesov 50 thousand rubles in early May.

It'll be better when Putin returns into his natural pool of goo or one of those cowardly ruskies puts him down like the dog he is.

The officers who did this won't change because the leader of the country changed.

I like your optimism... a Kremlin power vacuum could go a lot of different ways.

Idk, since around year 1900 they almost always tilt to the right. Even Russian communists were authoritarians. When the Soviet Union collapsed into the Russian federation, it was yet another rightward tilt. Let me guess how the next one is gonna go, hmmm think brain.

Russia has never improved as a result of an assassination or death of a predecessor. When Stalin died Russian didn't exactly become a paragrim of democracy why would you think anything would happen differently if Putin died even if by natural causes.
